Petey, KG is not just a read and react guy. He also gets into people's head. He will just take a little time to adapt. Some people take a little longer to adapt, some less. He did not start playing 5 effectively until after the All-Star break last year. He had already been playing 5 in games before that.

You are right. I figure that it'll take over a month for the new guys to get the new system down. It's strange and a little scary for a Celtic team with tons of new players to score over 100 points against Miami who has one of the best defenses in the league. Once the new guys learn the Celtics defensive schemes and Milicic and Wilcox return, Boston will be a powerhouse.

Anytime you have the two best teams in the Association playing against each other it's great for basketball. The NBA finally has a rivalry in Miami and Boston that is worthy of the name. This is going to be a great season.
